RFC 4743: Using NETCONF over the Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP)

Still current, but amended. Parts of this document are changed or extended by RFC 8996. Read both.

In plain English — editorial summary, not part of the RFC

The Network Configuration Protocol (NETCONF) is applicable to a wide range of devices in a variety of environments. Web Services is one such environment and is presently characterized by the use of the Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP). NETCONF finds many benefits in this environment: from the reuse of existing standards, to ease of software development, to integration with deployed systems. Herein, we describe SOAP over HTTP and SOAP over Blocks Exchange Extensible Protocol (BEEP) bindings for NETCONF. [STANDARDS-TRACK]
